On Saturday, we went to Panna II<\/a> for dinner with Danny and Carrie. Indian food and BYOB! Food was okay considering the price, but I remember the Chicken Vindaloo being pretty bland.

We brought the rest of the cab and a bottle of Wine Spots Chardonnay<\/a> to the restaurant. Not too crazy about the cab with Indian food (John wanted to bring it because he doesn\u2019t like white wines), but the chard was delicious. The acidity, fruity flavors, and floral aromas go well with the spices. (I usually don\u2019t even like chardonnay that much!) The Argentinian Sauvignon Blanc that Danny and Carrie brought was tasty, too. \"\"<\/a>If you\u2019re wondering why the photos have a nice pink glow, it\u2019s because this restaurant has the most ridiculous decorations. I didn\u2019t get any good photos on my phone, but here\u2019s an image from Google:\"\"<\/a>This place is tiny, covered in shiny wrapping paper, and has a bazillion lights. The chilli pepper lights are my favorite. While we were there, they turned off all the lights momentarily before singing happy birthday to someone. Not a fan of the flashing lights. Ugh.<\/p>\n

Food was mediocre, but we\u2019re definitely going back sometime. Pretty lights!<\/p>\n
